A year for Kiko

Ferida Wolff, Joung Un Kim (Illustrator)
Each month of the year brings different activities for a young girl, including catching snowflakes in January, planting a seed in May, and calling to geese in September. Kiko becomes the March wind and the summer firefly, plants a seed in May, jumps in the fallen leaves of October, plays hide-and-seek with the harvest moon, and catches snowflakes. As the months pass, Kiko welcomes each new season and finds ways to celebrate the changes it brings. In free verse and with lovingly painted illustrations, the changing seasons are captured through the eyes of a little girl
